Love

I feel like there is a lot to say on this subject... And the way you view it forms who you are in a lot of ways.

Are you one who loves well? Do I love people well? What is love anyway... Oh wait, the bible defines it and it's pretty intense. Love is patient, love is kind, it is not easily angered nor does it hold any record of wrong... We could stop right there... Holds NO record of wrong?! So that list I have in my head of things I can recall way too quickly in areas I feel like I've been wronged... Not exactly biblical. This list wouldn't be a problem if I didn't want to love people well, so there's one option. Just ignore love, build walls, decide who isn't going to hurt me based on past experiences, and be safe.

Mmmm that doesn't sound so good, in fact it looks like it leads to a road of bitterness... I'm pretty sure that's not what I was created for...

So what am I created for?

I'm going to pull out my bible and get back to you on that.
